The Past Presents The Future - Her Space Holiday

When I think about the world and how big it can seem

I know I can get through it all with my best friend right next to me

We started out as little kids and watched each other grow

And anywhere I went with you I felt like I was home

We won’t worry about our future or fret about our past

We’ll enjoy our time together knowing that this quietness will last

When I think about my family and how much they’ve endured

I want to wrap them in my arms and keep them safe and warm

But they would never know this because I’m so far removed

Fixated on my bloodline I adopted my excuse

It wasn’t on the radio or on some TV show

I used it for survival, I’m learning how to slowly let it go

When I think about my enemies and all the time we waste

Suiting up in armor for the battle that we waged

I want to pull my t-shirt off and wave it in their face

And yell out I surrender I no longer have the strength

So let’s rip up all the score cards and call the game a tie

We’ll both become the winners and walk away with a little peace of mind

When I think about my history a collection of events

Filled with important characters who mostly came and went

Regret is like a bill unpaid it controls your every move

If you throw it into the violent sea it will always come right back to you

The past presents the future take your hands from your eyes

So you can wave to all the people as you roll through what’s left of your life

Good night to you

I’m going home
